    Vardre when I looked at the French/Brittany sites websites (Siblu?/Haven) some of them close quite early in the year (Early September) perhaps its not as common to have late caravanning hols on the Continent?

    Just tried to login and get 'an internal server' error - must be overloaded?

    To be perfectly honest, thats why we went for Duinrell, we couldn't find a park in Central/Northern France open at this time. Duinrell, is, and has the advantage of having the amusement park closing the weekend before ;).

    My moan, was over the fact that no matter what dates I put in, the parks for Holland, Spain or Italy, don't show in my park list.

    Many thanks to all who've posted codes - I've been able to book our first choice holiday for half term week. OK, it's not a huge site overloaded with entertainment, so not likely to be in demand, but at least we'll get a break this year - even better, it fits in with OH shift pattern, so he doesn't have to take too much holiday either :) AND we can take the dogs with us :):)
    Please forgive me if my comments seem abrupt or my questions have obvious answers, I have a mental health condition which affects my ability to see things as others might.

    Just booked a 4 day break at Kessingland (the nearest to RSPB Minsmere), no service charge on selected dates - must be popular! ;)

    Can you only book one 'sun holiday' Vardre?

    What's the Dutch site you go to like? How much is the ferry & which crossing?

    Not sure can't book one... because wife is a teacher and my shift patterns, 30th October was the only date we could do.

    The site is Duinrell (website https://www.duinrell.nl). Which has had some very good reviews on this site, and others, and only 2 hours drive from Boulogne with Speedferries.
  • Thanks Vadre.

    I thought I'd have a looksee at the 2007 dates too but only the April ones are showing.

    For those of you who haven't managed to collect the codes but were sent a priority booking form with ref no, here are the 6 codes that you need:

    cool,boat, sail, blue, lake and pack

    It doesn't matter which order you put them in.

    I've just managed to book two holidays! One in late Aug, and one in Oct half-term! Two hols for the family at less than £100! We're so chuffed. It feels like it was about time we had a holiday.
